    UPDATE: Buhari Orders 14-day Lockdown In Lagos, Ogun and FCT Over Coronavirus Outbreak 2


    President Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday during a nationwide broadcast ordered the restriction of movement in Lagos, Ogun and Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, following the outbreak and continued spread of Coronavirus in the country. 

    The restriction is expected to last for two weeks in the first instance to enable the Federal Ministry of Health, Nigerian Centre for Disease Control and other stakeholders rally all available resources to control the spread of the disease. 

    Buhari urged citizens in these areas to stay in their homes in order to reduce the risk of contracting the virus. 

    He equally advised that inter-state travels should be postponed. 

    According to the President, the containment period will be used to identify, trace and isolate all individuals that had come in contact with confirmed cases, including ensuring the treatment of confirmed cases while restricting further spread to other states.

    He said, “Based on the advice of the Federal Ministry of Health and NCDC, I am directing the cessation of all movements in Lagos and FCT for an initial period of 14 days with effect from 11pm on Monday, March 30, 2020. 
    “This restriction will also apply to Ogun State due to its close proximity to Lagos and the high traffic between the two states.”

    Nigeria currently has 97 confirmed cases of Coronavirus and one recorded death.

    Covid-19: Seven districts in Sarawak are red zones, says Uggah 3

    KUCHING: The Sarawak State Disaster Management Committee (JPBN) announces that seven districts in the state are Covid-19 red zones (hotspots), today.

    Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas (pix), who is also the committee’s chairman, said the city of Kuching had the most hotspots with 69 areas.

    “This is followed by Samarahan with 16 areas, Miri (nine), Betong (six), Limbang (six) and Bintulu (five),” he told a press conference on the development of Covid-19 at Wisma Bapa Malaysia here, today.

    Uggah said six districts were listed as yellow zones, namely, Serian (three), Sibu (three) while Mukah, Matu, Lawas and Simunjan had one area each.

    He said the state government has decided that offshore oil and gas employees, including from outside Sarawak, must undergo a 14-day quarantine in the state before going to the oil rigs.

    “In addition, the committee is also not allowing movements between districts and exemptions are only given to emergency cases with approval from the respective district offices,” he said.

    Uggah said Sarawak recorded 11 new positive Covid-19 cases today, boosting the total number of cases in the state to 129 cases, since the first case on March 13, 2020.

    “These 11 new cases are being treated at the Sarawak General Hospital, comprising six men and five women,” he added. – Bernama

    More temporary hospitals to be opened if Covid-19 cases spike 4

    PUTRAJAYA: The Ministry of Health (MOH) will open more temporary hospitals if Covid-19 cases increase drastically.

    Health director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah (pix) said the temporary hospitals would be for patients who did not need respiratory aid.

    “For example today we have 150 new cases. If we look at the daily situation, there is a sudden increase in new cases, we might open more temporary hospitals at halls and stadiums, if necessary.

    “If we receive 1,000 cases a day, we would probably use the temporary hospitals for cases of non-symptomatic but tested positive or patients tested positive with mild symptoms, which do not involve respiratory aid,“ he told a media conference on the development of Covid-19 today. – Bernama

    EXCLUSIVE: Two Nurses, One Doctor Infected With Coronavirus In Abuja Hospital 6


    Two nurses and a doctor have been confirmed to have tested positive for Coronavirus at a hospital in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital. 

    The health workers, who are staff of a government hospital in Abuja, were part of medical personnel that attended to an infected person brought into the hospital.

    A senior medical worker at the hospital told SaharaReporters that, “The patient was rushed to the hospital and as our job demands, we have to save life first and that was what we did.

    “The person was attended to and stabilised by the medical team.

    “A test was soon conducted and the result came out positive.

    “The hospital thereafter asked all those who attended to the patient to undergo tests to determine their status and at the end of the day, the three tested positive for the virus. 

    “They are currently in isolation at the Gwagwalada Specialist Hospital.” 

    Speaking further, the senior health worker lamented the lack of quality Personal Protective Equipment for them, adding that government must invest in the protection of health workers at the frontline of the battle against the virus.

    He said, “The unfortunate thing is that the government is not providing us with what to work with. It is sad that our PPE are not up to the world standard and can be penetrated by viruses.

    “Some of us (health workers) have to use our personal funds to purchase gloves as we do not trust the ones government supplied.

    “Nigerians should please remember us in their prayers and government should provide us with what we really need to work.”

    Nigeria currently has 81 confirmed cases of Coronavirus and one recorded death. 

    According to the diplomatic community, infections could rise to more than 10,000 in the coming weeks as there are at least 5,000 persons, who had come in contact with infected persons in Nigeria already.

    SHAH ALAM: Gardenia Bakeries (KL) Sdn. Bhd has increased its production to 2.2 million loaves of bread a day through its five factories operating 24 hours a day.

    Its senior general manager Desmond Tan said the production was a five per cent increase in total production before the implementation of the Movement Control Order (MCO).

    “This supply is able to meet 60% of the demand for bread from all over Peninsular Malaysia, other bread brands have also been in high demand since the Movement Control Order was implemented,“ he said after welcoming Deputy Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (KPDNHEP), Datuk Rosol Wahid who visited the factory here today.

    He said despite the increase in bread production, it has always complied with standards set including aspects of cleanliness, delivery and date of expiry.

    In the meantime, Rosol has agreed that retailers carry out their own limited bakery purchases according to the needs of their localities so as to look after the welfare of others. — Bernama

    (Video) Covid-19: Family of seven stays cheerful despite virus infection 8

    KUALA LUMPUR: Although this family of seven has been tested positive for Covid-19, the five siblings who are currently quarantined at the Teluk Intan Hospital sure know how to stay cheerful instead of being despondent.

    Since yesterday, the TikTok video of Erika Syamim Samsu Ambia, 17, and her siblings has been trending on Twitter.

    “Even though we’re Covid-19 positive, we as a family will go through this together. Plus, our health condition is okay. Here’s a TikTok (video) we made to entertain ourselves in hospital,” she wrote.

    The eldest among the five siblings admitted they had to be strong-willed and pray constantly during these trying times.

    In a conversation with Bernama via Twitter, she said her father Dr Samsu Ambia Ismail, a Specialist and Head of the Emergency and Trauma Department at the Teluk Intan Hospital, was the first in the family to have tested positive for Covid-19 and has been quarantined at the hospital for the past six days.

    Erika Syamim, four siblings, aged between eight and 15, and their mother were quarantined a day later.

    “We are fighting the virus with our own antibodies and hope we’ll be fine after the 14-day quarantine,” she said.

    At the time of writing, Erika Syamim’s Twitter feed has received over 208,000 views, 14,800 retweets and 19,000 likes.

    Asked by a netizen about the symptoms of the disease, she said her father had fever, cough and breathing difficulties while the rest of them just had a fever.

    Netizens flooded her Twitter post with words of encouragement, prayers and hoped they would stay strong and recover soon.

    Erika Syamim also had some advice for other patients, especially Muslims, to continue to pray and recite the al-Quran.

    “If you are in the ward, don’t be ‘lemau’ (sluggish). Be cheerful, insya-Allah (God willing) we can fight the disease too,” she said. — Bernama
